Designs which are minimax in the presence of model misspecifications have been constructed so as to minimize the maximum, over classes of alternate response models, of the integrated mean squared error of the predicted values. This mean…
Most Bayesian response-adaptive designs unbalance randomization rates towards the most promising arms with the goal of increasing the number of positive treatment outcomes during the study, even though the primary aim of the trial is…
In this paper optimal experimental designs for inverse quadratic regression models are determined. We consider two different parameterizations of the model and investigate local optimal designs with respect to the $c$-, $D$- and…
This paper is related to the problem of finding the maximal quasi-bicliques in a bipartite graph (bigraph). A quasi-biclique in the bigraph is its "almost" complete subgraph. The relaxation of completeness can be understood variously; here,…
We construct supplementary difference sets (SDS) with parameters $(59;28,22;21)$, $(69;31,27;24)$, $(75;36,29;28)$, $(77;34,31;27)$ and $(87;38,36;31)$. These SDSs give D-optimal designs (DO-designs) of two-circulant type of orders…
Block coordinate descent (BCD) methods approach optimization problems by performing gradient steps along alternating subgroups of coordinates. This is in contrast to full gradient descent, where a gradient step updates all coordinates…
Software methods introduced for automated design of approximate implementations of arithmetic circuits rely on fast and accurate evaluation of approximate candidate implementations. To accelerate the evaluation of circuit error, we propose…
We propose an enhancement to Benders decomposition (BD) that generates valid inequalities for the convex hull of the Benders reformulation, addressing the limitation that classical BD cuts are typically tight only for the continuous…
We solve the existence problem for $F$-designs for arbitrary $r$-uniform hypergraphs~$F$. This implies that given any $r$-uniform hypergraph~$F$, the trivially necessary divisibility conditions are sufficient to guarantee a decomposition of…
We have established the association matrix that expresses the estimator of effects under baseline parameterization, which has been considered in some recent literature, in an equivalent form as a linear combination of estimators of effects…
The two basic equations satisfied by the parameters of a block design define a three-dimensional affine variety $\mathcal{D}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{5}$. A point of $\mathcal{D}$ that is not in some sense trivial lies on four lines lying in…
The maximal biclique enumeration problem in bipartite graphs is fundamental and has numerous applications in E-commerce and transaction networks. Most existing studies adopt a branch-and-bound framework, which recursively expands a partial…
We show that an intricate relation of cluster properties and optimal bipartitions, which takes place in undirected random graphs, extends to directed and mixed random graphs. In particular, the satisfability threshold coincides with the…
In this paper, we present "BIKED," a dataset comprised of 4500 individually designed bicycle models sourced from hundreds of designers. We expect BIKED to enable a variety of data-driven design applications for bicycles and support the…
Inspired by the "generalized t-designs" defined by Cameron [P. J. Cameron, A generalisation of t-designs, Discrete Math. 309 (2009), 4835--4842], we define a new class of combinatorial designs which simultaneously provide a generalization…
Motivated by customer loyalty plans and scholarship programs, we study tie-breaker designs which are hybrids of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and regression discontinuity designs (RDDs). We quantify the statistical efficiency of a…
A bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$ with $V=V_1\cup V_2$ is biregular if all the vertices of each stable set, $V_1$ and $V_2$, have the same degree, $r$ and $s$, respectively. This paper studies difference sets derived from both Abelian and…
In this work we consider the HYBRID model of distributed computing, introduced recently by Augustine, Hinnenthal, Kuhn, Scheideler, and Schneider (SODA 2020), where nodes have access to two different communication modes: high-bandwidth…
We study the Maximum Balanced Biclique (MBB) problem: Given a bipartite graph $G$ with $n$ vertices on each side, find a balanced biclique in $G$ with maximum size. We give a polynomial-time $\left(\frac{n}{\widetilde{\Omega}\left((\log…
The cyclic block coordinate descent-type (CBCD-type) methods, which performs iterative updates for a few coordinates (a block) simultaneously throughout the procedure, have shown remarkable computational performance for solving strongly…
